Also, it is 30 basis points more than the previous rates offered by the bank,” ICICI Bank said in a statement, adding that resident senior citizens can avail the benefit of this scheme for new FDs as well as renewal of old FDs.
The customers can avail a loan against their FD up to 90 per cent of principal and accrued interest
